I have two CD drives: /dev/hdc (CD writer) and /dev/hdd (DVD). I tried to install from /dev/hdd/. Everything went fine until Stage 3, when installer began to continuosly ask me to insert the installation drive, although it was in. I had to skip package installation, which led to inability to use X Window: no WM was installed. Only one drive was visible in the system after the installation finished. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert a CD into /dev/hdd 2. Pass all stages to stage 3 3. Try to install selected packages.

> Only one drive was visible in the system after the installation finished. seems to me, hal/udev/whatever fault -- package installation module can't install packages from nonexistent media. comments ?
